The restaurant is owned and lovingly run by Faye who started it back in September 2009.

Adorned with a professionally procured and increasingly extensive collection of antiques, these globally sourced pieces combined with Faye’s academic study of window-dressing and fashion design have united to forge the distinctive and inimitable interior of Harlem.

Harlem is contributing to the emerging Belfast food scene by its move towards dining in relaxed, less formal and unique surroundings. The place has a spirit that we would humbly encourage you to experience for yourself, for the customers of Harlem Faye’s unfailing hospitality and hard work is palpable.

‘I had absolutely no doubt in my mind what I wanted the customer to experience — great coffee, delicious home-made food, a fantastic venue to dine and meet up with friends, and all wrapped up with excellent customer service.’

As well as going to great lengths to make her customers feel right at home she also goes above and beyond for charity; Faye has trekked though the Amazon and the Himalayas for the Teenage Cancer Trust in recent years.

The success of Harlem has naturally led to the development of our catering services, antique hire service and event hosting.
